SIMPLE.
The Votator® Origin Series is designed to provide powerful
results for light duty, low-to-medium viscosity applications

VERSATILE.
that demand high productivity. Its modular design enables
flexible adaptation to your specific processing needs.

DEPENDABLE.
To enable process customization with either stainless steel
or duplex stainless steel, there are three shaft diameters
available, with a self-loading hinged scraper blade as
a standard offering and a floating flat blade for various
products including particulates. Additional options include
rotor heating, insulation, and double mechanical seals.

The Votator® Origin Series complies with 3-A sanitary

design and fabrication standards. Available certifications
include PED, CE and CRN. The design is to EHEDG
standards however a certificate was not pursued.

Combining knowledge
from three experienced
brands to develop an
optimized light duty
scraped surface heat
exchanger.
Heating/cooling media
Depending on the application and available utilities the
Votator® Origin Series is suitable for a range of media
including: steam, hot water, glycol, brine, cold water.
Wide range of configurations
The Votator® Origin Series is designed for use at 14 to
302°F (-10 to 150°C) with a design pressure of up to
290 psi (20 bar) in the standard version and comes
optional in a 362 psi (25 bar) version.

Material options enable the processing of difficult fluids

such as acidic products. The flow-design creates a low
pressure drop and enables processing of products with
particles and solids.
